Jia Zhengjin traveled day and night, and it only took six days to rush back to the Holy Dragon City.

For his return, the generals who guarded the fortress, such as Varien, Alvin, Moses, and Leo, all rejoiced.

"Has anything happened in the city recently?" After arriving at the fortress, Jia Zhengjin's heart that had been hanging all the way finally relaxed. The feeling of being at home is really the best!

"Report to Lord Keane!" Warrien, as the strongest of these generals, immediately stepped forward and replied, "It has been the same in recent days, because of the pressure of the war, this road is rarely passed! Everyone is actively preparing for the battle, and no time is wasted!"

"Hmm!" Hearing this, Jia Zhengjin nodded, "Is there any news from the surrounding area?"

"Our intelligence gathering unit does have some good news!" Varion replied, "The situation of the Heroic Wind Empire in the battle with the Otto Empire and the Storm Alliance Army seems to be quite bad! Bright City has been occupied by the Storm Alliance Army due to the lack of defense forces, and the Otto Empire has also occupied Vale City of the Heroic Wind Empire! Under pressure, the Heroic Wind Empire is ready to sue for peace, and is willing to exchange Claude's corpse for the temporary withdrawal of the Otto Empire and the Storm Alliance Army. ”

"This is indeed good news!" Jia Zhengjin nodded, a smile on his face. If Claude's body is retrieved, he will be able to get the Elven Fountain of Life after resurrecting him. With the Fountain of Life, he and Tina, Perrin, Christina, and even the people around him can live a long life! Who would think that he would live a long time and live forever young?

"And," Varion continued, "the king of the Otto Empire seems to want to consolidate relations with us, and therefore has prepared a great deal of gold and silver treasures, and is ready to send messengers to escort them. ”

"Oh, how many gold coins?!" Jia Zhengjin asked hurriedly, he was more concerned about this.

"It doesn't say anything about it!" replied Varien, "do you need me to send a letter to ask for it?"

"Okay...... Forget it!" Jia Zhengjin thought for a moment, "There's no need!

"Yes!"

"No other good news?"

"Yes!" Varion thought for a moment, "Lady Tina has ordered the expansion of the Holy Dragon City, and now the third city has been divided, about three times the size of the original inner city and the outer city combined! ”

"The city has expanded?" Jia Zhengjin paused for a moment, he didn't think that Tina would have such courage when he was away, "But why do you suddenly want to expand? Isn't there still a large number of empty building areas in our outer city?"

"Report to Lord Keane!" Varion replied, "Actually, we got the news a few days ago that there is a Miltai tribe on the side of the Beit Empire, who was originally a national of the Miltai Kingdom. Their country had been breached by the Beit Empire a year earlier, and although the entire Miltai tribe resisted desperately, there was nothing they could do and they had to take refuge in the mountains. This Miltai kingdom, I don't know where to hear the news of the Holy Dragon City recently, and I learned that Lord Kean is kind and willing to shelter any suffering people, so he has traveled thousands of miles to come and defect. Kind messengers passing by have sent their letters of help to our city. That's why Madame Tina ordered the city to be expanded immediately to make it a place for the Miltai to live!"

"Where did they hear about the Holy Dragon City? Who said I would shelter any of the suffering tribes......" Jia Zhengjin said this, and suddenly a flash of inspiration, "I'll go! It's definitely Connie's big pit! What the hell does she want to do?"

"Lord Keane, do you think it's inappropriate to accept the Miltai?" Seeing Jia Zhengjin's face change, Varion hurriedly asked in a low voice, "Do you want me to lead the troops and drive them back?"

Hearing this, Jia Zhengjin couldn't help but glance at Warion. This guy is really ruthless, but it's obviously all about himself.

But he wasn't that hard to talk to, he just felt depressed about Connie doing something outside. Besides, the Holy Dragon City is big enough anyway, and it doesn't mind accepting some refugees: "Since you agreed, there is no need to go back! Tina promised to promise me, it's all the same!"

"Yes, Lord Keane is merciful!" Varion laughed.

"By the way, what are the Miltai tribes, are there hundreds of people who have come to take refuge this time?" Jia Zhengjin asked.

Varion shook his head.

"How many thousands?" Jia Zhengjin asked again.

Varion shook his head.

"How many people, don't shake my head for a long time!" Jia Zhengjin said unhappily.

"Report to Lord Keane," Varion replied hastily, "according to the letter from the Miltai, they themselves say there are 23,477 men!"

"How much?" Jia Zhengjin thought he had misheard, and stared at Varion with wide eyes.

"Lord Keane, 23,477!" Varion repeated.

"More than 23,000 people, are you kidding me?" Jia Zhengjin originally thought that there were only a few hundred, but at most there were only a thousand. But I didn't expect that the number that Varion reported to himself turned out to be more than 23,000! How many times is this number of people in the Holy Dragon City? You must know that excluding the kobolds and imperial troops that he summoned, the people who were truly accepted by the entire Holy Dragon City did not live to be more than six or seven thousand!

Seeing that Jia Zhengjin was frightened by this number, Varion hurriedly said: "It's true! Unless the Miltai people lie, it's your number! ”

"No wonder Tina wants to expand the area of the original city by more than twice the area, otherwise she really won't be able to live there!" The corner of Jia Zhengjin's mouth twitched, more than 23,000 people!

It's not that because of the problem of food, there is a farmland system, and they can be completely self-sufficient, even faster than the current hoarding speed! It's just that so many people are very distressed about the problem of job distribution, and there is no industry in the Holy Dragon City now, except for mining, which is cutting down trees, fishing, and the like, even if tens of thousands of people go to farm half of the land, it will be difficult to distribute all the rest! Do you want them to be idle every day and have nothing to do?

That's not right! He thought about it again, he really can't recruit a large number of soldiers from it, this is a solution! Anyway, the big war is coming, and he needs more troops, doesn't he?
